What kind of temperature is it down your way?

Ok, so today I just checked my stock levels of green tape. It has gone down to 81, from 82. But Amazon have stopped me selling the tape due to a cock up. So how can this be? Well, they are selling MY tape from MY stock as though it is their own product. Their stock level has gone down to 81...

What is weird is that normally, bonfire season is associated with wrapping up as the weather turns south. But today in the UK, it is clear blue skies with a temperature of 18C (65F), more akin to a perfect summer's day.

Indeed, science fiction writers seem to be the prophets of the tech future. I think many have their fingers on the pulse of what is coming, and correspondingly writer about it to boost the authenticity. It is no long a question of if something happens, but when.

This had me in stitches! I couldn't stop smiling...:D

Ah right, that would explain it. You could have 100 buttons, one for each sound. Gotcha. Some of these synthesizers have one button with a ton of functionality on it. That is what I was comparing it to in my mind.

I am slow in the mornings too and feel like a zombie until I have had a coffee at my local coffee shop. Also, I occasionally like a Jasmine tea. I don't like conventional tea with milk though. It has always puzzled me the logic behind putting milk in first. It just reduces the temperature so...

I never used to like either when I was in my teens. But in my 30's, I tried a cappuccino and thought it wasn't too bad. Now I have one every day. But tea leaves me a bit cold. What do you prefer, coffee or tea?

I don't know how they cope with so many buttons! But I suppose it is the 80:20. You only use 20% of them 80% of the time.

Mechanically typing out notes does little for memory. I know a lot about the topic of memory, which is one of the reasons I created The Mind Tavern! Even if you highlight a book, and then review those highlights, you con yourself. You have recognition of each highlight and say to yourself, "I...

Just checked and it was from 2016. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Technics-SX-F5-electric-organ-with-pedals-and-bench-/262280567278 Yes, it's the sort of thing that needs to stay put! But I bet you are getting great value out of yours.

I just had a quick look at the F5 on ebay and there is one going for $300!! I couldn't believe what you could get for the money! Stuffed full of buttons. Would make a great present.

I saw that in the news yesterday. It's dog eat dog out there.

Wow, you do have quite an extensive musical background then. I've often wondered if the keyboard is harder to learn than something like the guitar. It seems you can get quite good sound out of a guitar fairly early on, while the keyboard requires much more training. I tried to learn the guitar...

So it is the day after my 2nd fast of the week. I am eating a bit more than normal today, as I felt quite peckish! But, I should have lost 1lb this week so far. It is the weekends that are bad for me. I will try not to stuff myself then.

I just got off the phone with them, after 1.5 hours. It was driving me potty. Getting fed up with the Amazon business. Such poor support, things going wrong outside of your own control. All for piddly earnings! I'm wondering about other options, like creating a SAAS (Software As A Service) type...

Amazon took down my product listings because someone said my product was counterfeit, which is hard because I created the brand and I am the only seller. Two weeks later and it is still not up and running. I have lost half a months wages on it. Now, I find that Amazon are selling through...

Indeed. An instant halving of income is rather sudden.

I was making the assumption that the disaster was catastrophic. I like to think big! So, I was thinking of an asteroid collision that split the earth in two. For those reasons, I thought taking my smartphone would be pointless as all power would be down, which is normally the case in a...
